Hi Unregistered,
We'll be undergoing major forum changes in the very near future. Be sure to check out the details here

Bulbapedia's article is incomplete, which it states at the top of the page, which is coupled with the incapability to assume things until someone's found the exact item themself (They refuse to acknowledge that Ash's Charizard is male, for example, because nobody on the show explicitly stated it, only heavily, heavily implied it).

Quick question, if I get White 2 and do the key thing where I change White Forest to Black City and do the Tower challenge and beat Benga(Banjirou) will I recieve the shiny Gible or will it still be the shiny Dratini?

Do you have to wait until beating the E4 before being able to find/enter hidden grottos? Cause there is one on route 3 and the hidden grotto pokemon are lvl 55-60, so I can't imagine being able to catch hidden grotto pokemon after first starting the game..

Route 3 is not reachable before the E4, so that's why the level's are so high on Route 3. I think you're able to find/enter them before beating the E4.

Hello!
Sorry to ask this but I read on serebii website that I can find an Eevee in Castelia City.
I'm not searching for the ones in the park but I'm searching for the gifted one.
I tried to talk to fennel and the 2 other people but nobody gave me the Eevee.
Do I have to wait later?
I just won the 3 badge and was going to route 4.
Thanks for your answer!

So then...just how soon/where is the first available hidden grotto pre-elite four?

Route 5 and Lostlorn Forest, but the one in Floccesy Ranch is accessible as soon as you get there if you have a Pokemon that knows Surf.

Funnily enough, we can visit the one in Lostlorn Forest or Floccesy Ranch before we visit the one in Route 5, yet the "tutorial" given by Bianca about the Grotto will always happen only in the one on Route 5.

Banjirou will appear only on the original facility, since you have White 2, that means Banjirou will appear only in White Forest's Treehollow.

He won't appear if you change the area, he will be replaced by a Veteran instead. If you beat the Veteran instead of Banjirou, that counts as beating a Veteran, not beating Banjirou, so you won't get a shiny, until you swap the City back into the Forest and challenge Banjirou.

My shinies are not for trade or cloning.
Shinies are not listed in order, for example the last shiny on the banner is not always the latest shiny I've obtained.
Banner 1 made by Light Venusaur, thanks ^_^

Actually, there are two Grottos in Route 3.
Route 5 and Lostlorn Forest, but the one in Floccesy Ranch is accessible as soon as you get there if you have a Pokemon that knows Surf.

Thank you very much ^-^. Even if my team isn't that high lvl at that point I still want to try to catch a grotto pokemon as soon as I can

It's cool that we can trade between BW & B2W2. I obtained my Washibon on B2 with this.
Just about the heylink missions, the missions where you have to find 5 objets in the clouds: which advices do you have?
Because I only found 4 objets because of the Onix and other Pokémon that battle with me.

I have a question about Memory Link. I have White1, but I preordered Black2. Will Memory Link not work as it is suppose to because I didn't get White's squeal? Should I call GameStop to ask if they can switch my preorder? I don't want to be penalized in my game, just because I wanted the other version. :x

There is no penalty for doing so. It doesn't matter if Black links with Black 2 or if White links with Black 2. The only restriction, at least as far as I know, is that they have to be of the same language.

PM me if you add me for X and Y so I can add you too! I apparently give Sandile, Nuzleaf, and Liepard in the Friend Safari.

That is great news! :'D Thank you! The people at the cashier were making me nervous "you sure you want Black 2 and not White 2" ><;
